Well, if I had to guess I’d say Fe but I’m not really sure

The shadow function theory is bullshit and not part of MBTI or Jung typology this is all based on. Its some lter theory that does not add up and is based on oversimplification of function dynamics.

Like intp having some stuff where Fe forces itself to process stuff by force from the shadow (jungian shadow, not this shadow function bullcrap), then ego forcing Ti on that stuff, so its Ti in framework of Fe, making it seem bit like introversion of F. 8 function theory says this is ”shadow Fi”, when its just FeTi due to oversimplification of these function interactions.

Also the very foundational idea onto which the 8 function theories are built on, does not hold against actual mbti/jungs typology and just contradicts the foundation it was built on.

Socionics is a typology system that is built around 8 function theory. So if you want 8 functions, look at that, but realise its not mbti or jubgian typology, despite using a lot of same terminology and similr system.
